The Ooni of Ife’s camp has reacted to the fire
incident at the palace of the Oba of on Tuesday.

An official has described the incident as a sad
one and revealed the palace is not happy with the
incident.

The spokesperson of the Ooni’s palace, Moses
Olafare, told PREMIUM TIMES that the Ife
monarch, Enitan Ogunwusi, is unhappy with the
fire incident.

“We are not happy over the fact that the palace
of Lagos king got burnt, we can only sympathise
with the palace on the development,” he said.

“People are entitled to their own views,” he said.
“But what people say doesn’t mean that is the
position of the palace.”

Recall we earlier reported about the fire incident
at the Lagos monarch’s palace. The fire occurred
about one week after a video showed the Lagos
monarch, Rilwan Akiolu, snub the Ooni.
There have been rumours on social media that
Tuesday’s fire was caused by the snub, reports
denied by Mr. Olafare.

“What happened is mere coincidence and should
not be traced to the incident in Lagos, we send
our sympathies,” he added.

Jose Mourinho explains who his one-finger celebration was aimed at

Posted By
Jose Mourinho certainly didn’t hide his emotions after winning the Europa League with Manchester United. After his side triumphed over Ajax 2-0, the Portuguese boss celebrated wildly. Mourinho was seen embracing his son, whilst telling all of his players to hold up three fingers to signify their fairly underwhelming ‘treble’ of the Community Shield, EFL Cup and now the Europa League. But there was one action that nobody could quite understand. Immediately after the final whistle, Mourinho could be seen shaking his index finger rather passionately at the crowd. But what did it mean? Did he mean this was the first major trophy of his spell at United? Did it mean that he was still the Special One? Or was it a message to the victims of the Manchester attacks on Monday? Well, none of the above, actually. Mourinho has actually revealed exactly who his one-finger celebration was aimed at. Mourinho explains his celebration "It's for my family," Mourinho sa...

Awaiting the death and burial of recession

Posted By
Judging by how confident the governor of the Cen­tral Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Mr Godwin Emefiele was as he made the announcement, we can only but agree that, all things being equal – like econ­omists the world over always posit – Nigeria will be out of recession latest by the third quarter of this year. Accord­ing to his well-heeled argu­ment, there was nowhere else for the nation’s beleaguered economy to head on account of the abiding positive indica­tors but out of recession. Who indeed would doubt him with inflation trending down­wards, the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) improving and foreign exchange going to the real sector as and when needed? What is more! This opti­mism is no less supported by the recent release of the na­tion’s economic position by the National Bureau of Statis­tics (NBS). According to the release, though the nation’s GDP con­tracted by 0.52 per cent in the 1st Quarter of 2017 repre­senting the fifth consecutive quarter of contraction since the first quarter...
